Worksheet 8 of 30 (26% complete)

Question 1

In an exam, 86 students appeared. Rahul secured 14th rank. What percentage of students are ahead of Rahul?
Students ahead = 13. Percentage = (13/86) × 100 = 15.1%

Question 2

In a row of 41 people, Tanvi is 16th from the front and Anita is 27th from the front. How many people are between them?
Between B = (rank of second - rank of first - 1) = 27 - 16 - 1 = 10.

Question 3

In an exam, 100 students appeared. Priya secured 63th rank. What percentage of students are behind Priya?
Students behind = 37. Percentage = (37/100) × 100 = 37.0%

Question 4

In a row of 35 students, Ali's rank from the left end is 24. What is Ali's rank from the right end?
The total number of people T = 35. Rank from right R = T - L + 1 = 35 - 24 + 1 = 12. So, Ali's rank from the right is 12.

Question 5

In a row, Divya is 14th from the left and Ramesh is 21th from the right. They interchange their positions. Now, Divya becomes 18th from the left. What is Ramesh's new rank from the right?
First find total: T = 18 + 21 - 1 = 38. After interchange, Ramesh takes Divya's old position from left (14). So Ramesh's rank from right = T - 14 + 1 = 38 - 14 + 1 = 25.

Question 6

In a row, A and B interchange positions. After interchange, A is 12th from left and B is 17th from left. If originally A was 10th from left, how many people are in the row?
Distance A moved = 2 positions. B moved same distance, so B's original position = 15. Total = B's original left position + (new_left_A - 1) = 19

Question 7

In a row of 39 people, Rohan is 9th from the front and Anita is 6th from the back. How many people are between them?
Non-overlapping case (r1 + r2 ≤ total). Between B = total - (r1 + r2) = 39 - (9 + 6) = 24.

Question 8

In a row, A is 4th from left, B is 8th from left, and C is 17th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 8 persons for B's left position, and at least 17 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(8, 17) = 17.

Question 9

In a row, A is 5th from left, B is 8th from left, and C is 17th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 8 persons for B's left position, and at least 17 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(8, 17) = 17.

Question 10

In a row of 40 students, A is 30th from the left. What is the sum of A's rank from left and from right?
Sum = Left rank + Right rank = 30 + 11 = 41.

Question 11

In a row of 30 people, Arun is 10th from the left. If Bhavya is 15th from the right, what is Bhavya's rank from the left?
Rank from left L = T - R + 1 = 30 - 15 + 1 = 16.

Question 12

In a row of 36 people, Arun is 7th from the left. If Bhavya is 24th from the right, what is Bhavya's rank from the left?
Rank from left L = T - R + 1 = 36 - 24 + 1 = 13.

Question 13

In a row of 48 people, Tanvi is 16th from the front and Yash is 35th from the front. How many people are between them?
Between B = (rank of second - rank of first - 1) = 35 - 16 - 1 = 18.

Question 14

In a class of 80 students, there are 30 boys and 50 girls. Riya ranks 17th from the top. There are 9 boys before her in the rank list. How many girls are after her rank (towards the bottom)?
Students before her: 16. Of these, boys before = 9, so girls before = 16 - 9 = 7. Girls after = total girls - girls before - herself = 50 - 7 - 1 = 42.

Question 15

In a row of 48 people, Sia is 9th from the front and Anita is 6th from the back. How many people are between them?
Non-overlapping case (r1 + r2 ≤ total). Between B = total - (r1 + r2) = 48 - (9 + 6) = 33.

Question 16

In a row of 37 people, after interchanging positions with B, A becomes 16th from the left and 22th from the right. If B was originally 13th from the right, what was A's original rank from the left?
Since B took A's original position, and B's original right rank was 13, we can find A's original left rank = total - r2_right + 1 = 37 - 13 + 1 = 9.

Question 17

In an exam, 59 students appeared. 2 students scored the same marks and secured the 10th rank. How many students scored more than them?
Even though 2 students share the rank, the number of students who scored more is still rank - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9.

Question 18

In a row, Amit is 15th from the left and Ramesh is 25th from the right. They interchange their positions. Now, Amit becomes 22th from the left. What is the total number of people in the row?
When positions are interchanged, using one person's rank from the left and the other's rank from the right at the interchanged positions: T = L + R - 1 = 22 + 25 - 1 = 46.

Question 19

In an exam, 44 students appeared. 4 students scored the same marks and secured the 16th rank. How many students scored more than them?
Even though 4 students share the rank, the number of students who scored more is still rank - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15.

Question 20

In a queue, Lata is 18th from the front and Om is 19th from the back. If there are 28 people in the queue, how many people are standing between Lata and Om?
Overlapping case because r1 + r2 = 37 > total 28. Between B = (r1 + r2) - total - 2 = 37 - 28 - 2 = 7.
